Spring is finally here and we are ready to WALK and turn Type One into Type None!

There are three JDRF One Walk events locally this Spring:

Saturday, April 18th in Baltimore, MD
Sunday, May 17th in Leesburg, VA
Sunday, May 31st in Washington, DC

The funds and support raised by the JDRF One Walk, which bring together over 10,000 people locally, help us turn Type One into Type None.

You can participate as a Family Team, Corporate Team or an individual walker. Family teams aren’t limited to family members. They can include your friends, coworkers, classmates and neighbors—everyone is welcome to join. Corporate teams are created by companies who want to support T1D research, but just like family teams, anyone can join, even non-employees.

To start a team, just register online at walk.jdrf.org and from there, you’ll have access to your online Participant Center, where you’ll find fundraising tips and tools and can invite anyone to join your team and make a donation to JDRF.

If you have any questions, please contact Meredith Grosser at (202) 465-4112 or mgrosser@jdrf.org.
